Fight Back

Whenever an abuser thinks they are losing control over you, they will try to control the narrative told about you. They fear you not praising and worshipping them. They fear not having you under their spell. Once you stand up for yourself, they make you seem to be the problem. They make you out to be the person that has the problem. When they yell, harass, and treat you bad, then blame you for their behavior, fight back. Don’t let them think they can break you or make you fear them. You have Christ living and dwelling within in you. He who is within you is greater than he who is in the world. All they did was give you the strength to move forward stronger, better, and wiser. There are endless possibilities for your growth and to represent God’s glory. Never give up. Never quit. Fight back.

Own Your Seat

You don’t have to fight for a seat at the table, it’s already yours.

Own the seat and make sure you use it for the best opportunities not just for yourself but for others.

Use the seat to change lives and impact others profoundly.

Use the seat to encourage and uplift and have people walk away feeling better and joyous when they’re around you.

Use the seat to motivate, encourage, and impact always.

Use the seat to grow and improve all things.

Own the seat.

Never abuse the seat.

Believe in the seat and glorify God.

Even if you have haters and jealousy from others, it only means you’re doing something significant and they can’t handle it.

Who cares?

You work for God.

He hasn’t made you weak. He makes us strong. He makes us warriors.

No one enjoys the main course without preparation of the meal.

But now you have already been trained. You have already been prepared.

Implement what you already know.

Now is not the time to be weak.

Now is the time to influence and change all things.

They Change You

Unfortunately, not everyone is the same as you. Not everyone is as warm, sweet, kind, caring and loving as you even if they are supposed to be. Sometimes ,you have to choose to be stronger. Choose to change your reality into something better and greater. Sometimes, you need to grow into grace and make yourself understand that you are not responsible for someone else’s behavior. You are only able to respond which can mean getting out of your comfort zone. Oh well, growth is uncomfortable but the end result is amazing. The end result is worth the challenge. It is worth the change.

Almost there

What happens when you’re almost there but not quite there yet?

Do you feel like you can’t be happy if you don’t have that one thing that you don’t have yet?

What if everything else you ever wanted is given to you?

Does it feel good enough to know that you have miracles in your face staring back at you, the miracles you prayed for, the miracles you waited and worshiped for.

When does it start to feel like contentment and peace or will it ever?

Maybe it will get better, but you won’t realize

Until you get you’re ‘almost there’ yet.

Release It

Release the hurt and pain because it is not worth holding on to

Release it because it is clouded your peace

Release it because you deserve to be set free

Release it because what hurt you was never meant to be

Failure

We all fail every now and then.
We do things in our own strength and get upset when it doesn’t go our way.

However, shouldn’t we just be grateful we have things to fight for. That we have something to believe in.
I recently failed for the first time in my life at something big.
I usually always pull through and God doesn’t allow me to experience things that he knows I need in order to succeed.
However, there are many other factors in life that contribute to failure.

If anything a failure makes you stronger. And you realize who you really are after the failure. Do you completely give up, throw in the towel and walk away?

Or do you rearrange things in your life to help you do better next time?
It’s not time to back down. It’s time to pull forward.

When King David failed, he strengthened himself in the Lord, he didn’t give up, but he pulled through.
The key factor is the Lord.

The joy of the Lord is your strength.

He will never fail.

Surrender

Why do we think we can fight God?

Surrender is our only choice.

Human reasoning tells us that we know what is best for us when we actually don’t.

Only GOD knows.

Humanity has been fighting to be in control of every aspect of life and leaving no room for God.

It only leads to a mess and to disaster.

Lord, forgive me for fighting all this time. Forgive me for telling you how I think it should be done.

Thank you for access to the throne room and we can speak to you.

We can ask anything in Jesus name.

May I always know that fighting you, is a losing battle and I’ll never win.

Your ways are higher and always better.

I surrender.

Easy

Forget the phrase “Let a man pursue you”

If you are a woman of God, you should be pursuing God first and only.

Any man that God brings into your life romantically, should also be pursuing God.

Both of you come together and pursue God together.

The phrase “let the man pursue you”, always made me feel unworthy and unloved if I was not being pursued.

A man’s love has never satisfied me, has never made me feel whole, and have never brought me comfort, joy, or security.

Only the love of God brings me complete peace, complete joy, pure happiness, complete surrender, meaning and fulfillment.

How can I submit to a husband if I cannot submit to God?

Allow yourself to submit to God first. To be your husband first. Allow yourself to pursue God first.

God is always pursuing us and we consistently ignore him and spend little time with him.

I have learned that a great man is one who loves God and will do anything for him.

I also need to love God more than anything and anyone of this earth.

Let your husband and you compete with who can love God more.

Who is willing to sacrifice more, fast more, pray more, worship more, submit more.

The more you both draw near to God, the more God draws near to you.

Pursue God more than your earthly husband.

Stop worrying about when you will meet him.

Don’t even say God will bring him in the right time and in the right season.

Your life is more than waiting for a man to pursue you or waiting to get married.

Your life should be a testimony of constant pursuit toward God and the man he allows in your life is only there to help you pursue God even more.

Focus on pursuing God, not a man’s pursuit of you .
